This historic Tudor Manor House is set in the estate village of Chenies in Buckinghamshire overlooking the Chess Valley.
This Grade I Listed Building, known formerly as Chenies Palace, was owned by the Cheyne family who were granted the manorial rights in 1180. The manor remained in their possession until the end of the 15th Century. The semi-fortified brick manor house which forms the core of the present day structure was built by Sir John Cheyne in approximately 1460. Both Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I visited the house on numerous occasions accompanied by their Courts. There are several unusual architectural features, including a secret hiding hole, and a medieval undercroft, plus a collection of antique dolls.
